Condescending and Condescending

If it weren't for knowing that the emperor didn't know the real value of these glazed vessels, Li Qingyu and others would think that the emperor did it on purpose.

So they could only suffer this loss secretly, gritted their teeth and said, "Thank you, Lord Long En!"

Finally, all the glass that took up space was cleared out, and it also saved a lot of money for the treasury, Fang Yanqin's mood improved.

He was too lazy to act with Li Qingyu anymore.

Because in his eyes, although Li Qingyu contributed the most to this battle against the Japanese, Li Qingyu did not invent glass, soap, or advanced firearms or artillery. It can't be regarded as standing on the shoulders of predecessors, he is at best a porter.

And when the weapons are far better than Japanese pirates, his subordinates are the ones who charge the battle, and his military advisers are more responsible for making plans. After all, he was just an ordinary white-collar worker in his previous life. Although he has read a few time-travel novels, where Know how to march and fight...

However, Li Qingyu's contribution cannot be denied. After all, without his coordination, this battle would not have been won.

If you think about it this way, the reward he gave today is actually very fair.

So Fang Yanqin still said one more sentence, let's just say it is exhortation: "Liqing's family, Zhen Guogong treats you well, I hope you will not disappoint his expectations."

As long as Li Qingyu doesn't continue to die, he won't do anything to him.

After all, what happened in the original plot has not happened yet.

Hearing this, Li Qingyu's heart skipped a beat, thinking that the emperor knew that he had kept a lot of concubines in Laizhou and had a close relationship with a female pirate.

But he thought about it again, he did all these things very secretly, only a few of his cronies knew about it, so it was impossible to spread it.

And if the emperor knows these things, it means that Lord Zhen should also know.

But if Lord Zhen Guo knew about this matter, he would not have praised him in the letter a few days ago to correct his mistakes, and hinted that he would ask a matchmaker to propose marriage to Duke Zhen's mansion as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Li Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief.

So the emperor should just be banging him now.

But beat him?

The emperor deserves it too!

As for the rumors that the emperor had succeeded in cultivation, he didn't take it to heart at all.

After all, no one in modern times knows that the elixirs practiced by ancient warlocks are full of sulfur, mercury and cinnabar, all of which are heavy metals, and whoever eats them will die.

As for the emperor's body looking much better after taking the elixir, it was obviously because the elixir he ate had added some great tonics, so it could improve his body in a short period of time, but he didn't know that this was actually overdrawing him. energy.

So they didn't look straight at the emperor in their hearts.

But Li Qingyu didn't show it on his face, and still said respectfully: "Long live and the kindness of the Duke of the country, I can't repay it even if I am so stupid."

In fact, Fang Yanqin really didn't know these things.

After all, when Li Qingyu went to Changyi County to take office, he disposed of all his confidante friends, and his purpose of doing so was naturally to create the image of a prodigal son and to wash away his stigma. .

As the saying goes, petty intolerance leads to great chaos, so Fang Yanqin only thought that Li Qingyu would at least take care of his lower body even if it was to please Zhen Guogong. After all, he is the protagonist in the original plot, so how could he think Li Qingyu was so impatient.

Therefore, Fang Yanqin thought that he had exhausted his benevolence, so he waved his hand casually: "Okay, all that needs to be said has been said, kneel down!"

"Yes, I will take my leave."

Li Qingyu and others retreated pretending to be respectful.

But as soon as Li Qingyu arrived home, his housekeeper delivered a letter: "My lord, this is sent by the lady of the Zhen Guogong's mansion."

As soon as he heard that it was Lu Qing who wrote him the letter, the gloom in Li Qingyu's heart caused by kneeling down to Fang Yanqin one after another disappeared instantly.

He opened the letter and saw that it was Lu Qing who asked him to go for an outing at Xianyuanguan in the suburbs.

Li Qingyu's eyes lit up, after all, he hadn't seen Lu Qing for two years, and he didn't know if that little girl had grown up now.

Thinking of this, Li Qingyu couldn't care less about appeasing his subordinates, and said directly: "Okay, you all go away."

After speaking, he went straight back to his room and changed his clothes, then rode out of the city.

Just when he was halfway up the mountain, as if he saw something, he suddenly reined in the reins.

Because in a small pavilion facing the river not far away, a graceful woman wearing a silver-white cloak and a gilded jade swing was sitting on the railing, and the woman turned her head at this moment.

I saw her willow eyebrows like the moon, her eyes like water, and the red peony flowers in full bloom on the red skirt not only did not look enchanting, but added a bit of dusty temperament, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks.

Li Qingyu held his breath for an instant, he turned his horse's head subconsciously, and walked towards the small pavilion.

Seeing Li Qingyu approaching on horseback suddenly, several guards outside Hou Zai Pavilion immediately shouted angrily: "Who is it, stop—"

"Shut up!"

Li Qingyu reined in the rein again, but he was not panicked at all. Not only did he look at the woman calmly, he also suddenly recited a poem: "Red, dark, emerald, and shallow are the most youthful years, leaning on the clear sky to break through the smoke. How could it be like this?" Where the fairy’s heart is broken, the crabapple and Yuwan are in front of the wind.”①”

Hearing this poem, the woman was immediately stunned.

"Red, deep, emerald, shallow, the most fragrant year, leaning against the clear sky and breaking the smoke. It's like a fairy's heartbroken place, begonias and rainy nights before the wind..."

She sipped the tea carefully, and knew that the poem praised her, so she looked at Li Qingyu with a hint of interest.

Seeing this, Li Qingyu immediately jumped off the jujube horse, bowed and said: "Li Qingyu, born late, has seen my wife."

Then he raised his head, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were like stars, and he looked romantic and suave.

……

Two days later, Li Qingyu joined the Army Division of the Five Cities.

Half a month later, Li Qingyu hired an official media to go to Zhen Guo Gongfu to propose marriage.

On July 23, Li Qingyu got married.

For the sake of Lord Zhen Guo and Qu Xiumo, Fang Yanqin went to join in the fun.

Soon, life was on track.

Li Qingyu was indeed quick-witted, and within two months after entering Wucheng Bingma Division, he subdued the people in the yamen, and by the way found out a few spies planted by Xiao Shoufu.

The members of the First Auxiliary Party were naturally very angry, and then Xiao Jincheng and Li Qingyu confronted each other.

Xiao Jincheng is Xiao Shoufu's youngest son, and he was the one who took away the No. [-] Scholar from Li Qingyu two years ago.

Today's Xiao Jincheng, with the support of Xiao Shoufu, has already taken the position of the right temple minister of Zhengwu Dali Temple.

And he only did one thing, which was to blame Li Qingyu for a murder case.

The case is also very simple. A woman died on the street outside the Bingmasi Yamen in Wucheng. She was as beautiful as a flower and was pregnant. She suddenly hanged herself one night.

After being inspected by the police, it was found that the woman's body was not only disheveled, but also that the strangle marks on her neck were white instead of purple, indicating that she was hung on the beam after her death.

Later, Xiao Jincheng, the investigation official sent by Dali Temple, found a man's footprints at the scene.

And the woman's husband, Wang Da, also immediately pointed out that Li Qingyu often went to eat in the restaurant opened by his family in recent days, and tried to molested his wife several times.

So Xiao Jincheng then summoned Li Qingyu over, and it turned out that the pair of footprints actually matched.

So Xiao Jincheng directly came to the conclusion that Li Qingyu tried to rape and rape because of sex, but Wang Da's wife refused, and when the two fought, Li Qingyu killed him by mistake.

The next day, this incident spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.

Even the town government's mansion was discredited.

However, what Xiao Jincheng did not expect was that Li Qingyu would find out the case the next day, but he did not immediately clear himself of the charges, but only after the matter was fully publicized did he reveal the truth of the case .

It turned out that the real murderer was the woman's husband, Wang Da.

Because Wang Da happened to bump into the scene of his wife and his younger brother Wang Er's adultery that day, and in anger, he accidentally killed his wife.

And Wang Er immediately expressed his willingness to compensate him all his wealth in order to ask for his forgiveness, so Wang Da let him go.

Then the two arranged the scene where the woman hanged herself.

——After all, according to the Dayang Law, adulterers can be executed directly without reporting to the government.

And Li Qingyu's method is also very simple, that is, to further extract white phosphorus with concentrated urine, and then make will-o'-the-wisps, staged a good show of Yama's night trial of Wang's brothers.

In this regard, Bao Gong called his colleagues directly! ②

It was revealed that Xiao Jincheng threatened Wang Da to slander Li Qingyu and molested his wife, and at the same time forged the footprints at the scene.

In the end, the one who went to jail naturally became Xiao Jincheng.

"Okay, Lord Li is indeed wise and brave."

"Master Li should be a role model for my generation."

……

As soon as Qu Xiumo entered the Imperial Academy, he heard the cheers of his colleagues.

Qu Xiumo was also very happy, not only because Xiao Jincheng fell so badly, but also because his mother was pregnant.

You must know that he is already 20 years old this year. It is unfilial to have a relationship with the emperor behind his parents' backs, and he is the only child in the family, and it is even more unfilial to delay getting married.

Fortunately, now that his mother is pregnant again, at least someone will be able to take his place at the knees of his parents in the future.

It's just that there is someone happier than him.

The next second, an official rushed in directly: "Overjoyed, overjoyed..."

The man was out of breath, but what he said was nothing less than thunder: "Concubine Xiao Gui is happy, according to the imperial doctor's diagnosis, this baby is likely to be a boy!"

boom!

After a brief silence, everyone was shocked.

The older Hanlin even burst into tears.

"Okay, long live finally has a queen."

"The kingdom finally has a crown prince."

Except for Qu Xiumo.

After a moment of bewilderment, his eyes were red, as if he was about to burst into flames in the next second.

Old color batch, you are finished!
